"You know after the mories we have regained, things are not as simple as black and white anymore.
It also looks like we have a tougher war to fight than ensuring our survival and that of the family.
Should we go and check it out?" Leng Pan was still skeptical about what was in that forest, but she wanted to find out too.
What if it had sothing to do with their past or how to fight the zombies or monsters in the future?
"Let’s go check it out. Don’t worry, I won’t let anything happen to you." Lu Zhen took his wife’s hand and comforted her.
"Okay." Leng Pan was happy to have such support.
Thus, she put away their motorcycles in the space and the two entered the forest cautiously.
As they walked, they witnessed so plants move out of the way. It was surprising and creepy at the sa ti.
Imagine a plant getting out of the way as if it was a human being.
What was going on in that forest anyway? Neither of them had an answer to that question. They could only walk more carefully because they weren’t sure whether all the plants that could move would give them way or try to attack them.
As they got deeper into the forest, they saw so places with plants that were healthier than others and it was obvious there was sothing there that promoted plant growth.
Leng Pan stopped and looked around. It was as if her husband was a worm in her stomach because he seed to know what she wanted to do.
"Baby, do you want to find what is causing the plants to grow so well?" He asked while surveying the area they were in.
"Yeah. Sothing like that might co in handy in the future and as you can see, it affects a large area.
So if we can find it then it might help us in growing vegetables in large numbers instead of the few potted plants that auntie usually takes care of.
As you have seen from those mories, our fight might involve more people in the future who will depend on us for so things.
Why not prepare in advance?" Leng Pan still rembered how they had to protect a whole city of people and providing fresh vegetables and fruits for such a large population wasn’t a walk in the park.
"Okay then
Let’s look for whatever it is and take it back." Thus, the two of them separated and started looking around, even digging in the ground to see if there was anything suspicious.
However, even after searching for ten minutes, they still found nothing. But they didn’t give up. In fact, it was at that ti that Leng Pan realized that the pull she had been feeling that brought her into the forest was gone.
It looked like whatever was there was the thing that had been attracting her into the forest.
When she thought this, she turned around to tell Lu Zhen about it, but that’s when she saw sothing that surprised her.
There was a glow under his clothes where the jade pendant he had been wearing lay.
The glow was not too obvious but that was probably because the pendant was covered by a few layers of clothes.
"Babe, can you remove that pendant from your clothes?" Leng Pan called out to her husband who felt his insides go weak from how she had addressed him.
It was the first ti she had used such a pet na and it made his heart beat faster and his blood boil.
If they were in the privacy of their ho, she would be on the bed by now and he would be doing things to her. Things he was starting to imagine and that was not too good because his little brother was beginning to wake up.
"Hubby?" Leng Pan called out again when Lu Zhen didn’t react.
Only then did Lu Zhen co back to his senses and hurriedly dipped his hand into his clothes and pulled out the pendant.
They were surprised to see the bright glow and it seed to be pointing at a certain spot on the ground.
The two followed the flow and ca to stop at a place where everything was covered by lush and full bushes and plants.
There were also glowing mushrooms growing under the bushes which was probably why they hadn’t spotted them earlier.
Without wasting any ti, both humans got down and started digging the mushrooms out.
They were using small shovels Leng Pan had taken out of the space earlier when they started looking around.
The mushrooms looked special so she put them in a container and put them in the warehouse in the space imdiately after they left the ground.
There were also a few herbs near that place usually used for blood stasis and wound healing.
They weren’t anything rare but Leng Pan was willing to bet everything she had that this particular batch was different from the others.
It must have other properties and she was going to find out when she had ti.
After digging for everything they thought was useful, they continued to dig deeper and after digging for a ter down, they found a shard of crystal like the one they had found on the roof top.
The one that had ended up turning into the pendant Lu Zhen was wearing. Holding the crystal, Leng Pan could feel the water elent inside her body beco active.
She could also connect better with the water molecules in the atmosphere.
"Could this be another one of those seals ntioned by Zee?" Leng Pan asked her husband who took the crystal shard to examine.
"I believe so. It is exactly like mine when we found it. And this one reacts to water the sa way mine reacted to fire." Lu Zhen comnted and gave the shard back.
Leng Pan used her consciousness to place the crystal shard on the table in the high-tech mansion inside the space bangle.
